Smart meters will bring various benefits, including improved accuracy in measuring water usage and potential for more efficient water management. Meters will be installed at every connection throughout the district over the next 4-8 weeks.
Here's a breakdown of what residents can expect:
- Courtesy Knock: Residents can anticipate a visit from an Accurate Meter installer who will inform them about the upcoming installation at their meter. This knock serves as a courtesy notice to ensure residents are aware of the work.
- Temporary Water Disconnection: During the installation process, residents should prepare for a temporary water disconnection lasting approximately 30 minutes to one hour. This interruption is necessary for the installation of the new smart water meters.
- Resuming Regular Use: After the installation is complete, residents can resume their water usage as normal.
- Additional Information: Once the installations are finalized throughout the district, residents can expect to receive further details or updates regarding the smart meters and any additional benefits or features they may offer.
Overall, the installation of smart water meters represents a positive step towards modernizing water infrastructure and improving service for residents.
